Best thing about this hotel was its location - close to sites I wanted to visit, museums, restaurants, pubs and shopping. The room was large. But the rooms could use a refurbishing. One drape was hanging partially off the rod, bedspreads were fraying, sheet was torn in the room next door where another family member was staying. The shower curtain... more

I found all aspects of my stay wonderful. The room itself was very large with a decent sized bathroom. The staff were friendly and very helpful. I thought the breakfast was wonderful and the service could not be faulted. They were all extremely accommodating. I would not think twice about staying at this hotel again. more

The hotel itself is fine, but the breakfast arrangements are not. Breakfast is taken in a different business, across the road, called Rick's. This morning, I attempted to have that breakfast. I say attempted, because they twice brought me a breakfast substantially different to the one I had ordered, and then said "I'm not getting you a third breakfast" and... more

I stayed here for 3 nights in May. The hotel has a fabulous location in New Town, walking distance to Waverly Station, and is decently priced for Edinburgh. I had a room on the 1st floor in the back. The decor in the room was a bit dated and could be renovated. It also had a bit of a musty... more

Frederick House is a wonderful European-style hotel (although every room has its own (pretty large) bathroom, so that was nice). We had a room on the fourth floor that was spacious and clean, and we had our own mini-fridge, which is such a useful feature in hotel rooms! We found the front desk staff to be helpful and polite, and... more

Hotel Frederick is a very Charming and Unique Hotel. It was in a great location and everything was in walking distance. We had a 4th floor room that had a beautiful big window overlooking the street and a great view of the city. The room was nice size and bathroom nice and clean. The staff were very pleasant and helpful.... more

The Frederick House was perfectly located for tourists visiting Edinburgh. Our room was very spacious. It was comfortable and felt clean although the upholstery and bedding were a little dated. The bathroom was nice and big and all tile so it felt clean too. The breakfast at Ricks was delicious! more

Me and my partner are just back from an Easter break staying at this hotel. Because of incorrect advertising on expedia.co.uk we were led to believe there was a bar at this hotel, as when you select to view hotel amenities it states one of the features is bar/lounge, which was really disappointing when we arrived. On arrival booking in... more

If you're looking for luxuary then give the Frederick House Hotel a miss - but if you are looking for a hotel with friendly, helpful staff, in a great location for a reasonable price, then this hotel is a good bet. I found the hotel on the net through a Google search. I booked 2 quad rooms, both with ensuite... more
